This was our first stop on a nine day trip to Italy. It set the bar pretty high. This apartment was so roomy for my family of six, two adults and four kids ages 18 to 22. The location was ideal. We walked everywhere we needed to get to. The kids all had their own space which was such a luxury to them. It was such a unique residence. We would highly recommend it.

Great space in a lovely area

Our party of 7 (2 couples, 3 teenagers) stayed here for 3 nights. There was lots of space, we utilized both the kitchen and the laundry, and it was walking distance to things we wanted to see. The directions of using public transportation from the airport and to the train station were very specific and helpful.

We had a great visit to Venice. Stefano provided excellent directions for getting to the apartment and arrival to Venice. The location is in a quiet section of the island and was perfect for our group.

Lovely apartment in a quiet neighborhood

We loved our stay in Stefano’s beautiful apartment. Minutes from all the major attractions but far enough away from the fray for a quiet meal or coffee and a good nights sleep. We enjoyed a dinner on the patio and some sun on the rooftop. Highly recommend especially for a family.

Excellent place to stay!

We loved staying here, it provided so much space for all of us (8 adults, 2 children)! It was in a perfect location, a little away from the busyness of San Marco, but close enough to easily walk and feel like you’re living like a local! Great restaurants nearby as well! The owner was very communicative and helpful with all of our questions, very clear about how to get to house from all incoming destinations. Would love to come back again!

This place was great. It was very easy to get from the airport on Alilaguna boats (Ospedale stop) and about 8 minute walk to St Marks. Restaurants and a market are very close. Stefano is a great host.

Amazing location, great host, gorgeous property

We stayed with a large group of family ranging from 11 years of age to 59 years of age. The accommodation was very spacious and great for a group. Stefano was a great host with so many great tips and information available. The location was fantastic and we loved everything about our stay. Thanks for your hospitality Stefano.

Beautiful and homey location that had a very short walk to the canals, restaurants and groceries. Close to most of the sites such as St Marks, & Rialto bridge. The Ospedale water bus was minutes away. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms.

We recently stayed at this home in Venice and had a wonderful overall experience. The property itself was beautiful, and the location was fantastic for exploring the city.**Cleanliness & Amenities**The rooms were impeccably clean and well-maintained, which we really appreciated. The kitchen was well-stocked and functional, making it very easy for us to prepare quick meals when we weren't eating out in the city.**Host & Suitability**Our host was lovely—communicative and helpful, ensuring we felt welcomed throughout our stay. It is also a very family-friendly property, with a layout and atmosphere that made us feel very comfortable traveling with our group.**A Note for Future Travelers**If you are planning to visit during the warmer summer months, there is one thing to keep in mind: while the home does have air conditioning, it takes quite a while to cool the space down. Even with the AC running, the home remained on the warmer side during the peak heat of the day. If you are sensitive to heat, I highly recommend asking the host if they have added portable fans to the bedrooms yet, or perhaps bringing a small travel fan of your own just in case.**Overall Impression**Despite the temperature, this was a great place to stay. Would recommend the addition of ceiling or floor fans. We enjoyed our time here and would recommend it for families looking for a clean, well-hosted, and central base in Venice Italy.

Dear Jason, thank you for your nice review! I have a few objections to your comment about the high temperaure in the apartment: 1) this summer, unfortunately, is the hottest in 3 centuries, the global heating is a fact and that has to be taken into account. 2) We do have a couple of fans in our storage room in the apartment and we would gladly have provided them to you IF ONLY YOU HAD ASKED! 3) In your private comment you suggest adding ceiling fans to improve the situation.. that is nonsense.. such fans would just pump hot air down from the top of the rooms!!

This is a GREAT apartment for a large group. We had 10 of us and there was plenty of room. The location is a 5-10 minute walk to San Marco, and there is a great grocery store about 5 minutes away. I would highly recommend this for a stay in Venice!
